Overcoming the Illusion of Loneliness
with Special Guest Teacher Kadam Lucy James

We often feel as if we are isolated individuals and suffer from loneliness, yearning to feel a sense of connection with others. In this course we will enjoy talks and meditations that explore the illusory perception of ourself as separate from others, for in truth we are all naturally and profoundly interconnected. By learning to understand and feel this connection we can transform our outlook on life, heal our relationships, and allow a natural closeness and authentic love for others to arise. (This course is also ideal for anyone who has ever fallen madly in love or been through a painful breakup!) Everyone is welcome!
